RE:RE:RE:Snowballer and Cobalt Describing our view of our own sentiment or that of the market is not the same as "trying to change sentiment". If it is than you're just as guilty.
You may not like the supporting topics of interest rates, the USD, geopolitics, montary & fiscal policy and technicals, but that doesn't mean the opinion isn't supported. If you're looking for me to parrot BSW's echo chamber of BTE well production and renvenue earned every weekend or simply repeat the spot price of WTI than I think you may want to self reflect on why you're here and what exactly you expect from others.

Thr problem occurs when the posts are obviously trying to change sentiment (positive or negative) without anything to support the opinion. This is by definition bashing (or blind promotion) and you shouldn't be surprised that it's not welcome here. Thr motives are seemingly to change sentiment to support your current position (in or out).
I can appreciate a trader and sometimes they bring valuable information to a forum. But I will add that decades of research shows that traders underperform investors. I'm sorry that you have been burned holding an investment and this seems to drive your decisions. Just know that this is a losing endeavour.
I agree that an investor has to know when to sell, but mocking them when they feel there is plenty of upside is disingenuous and your motives are ulterior.

"bad mouthing the price of oil"? The sheer ignorance here is unreal. Too many of you are married to this stock and you think oil has one direction.
I hold long and I trade. I sell my long when I think it's time.
Guys like us like to analyze the downside risk in addition to the upside. I'm always interested in peoples market perspective. But I shutter at the thought some of the new regulars like BSW and perhaps yourself are one dimensional "investors" who suggested anyone who isn't bullish 24/7 should leave. Goes to show how dumb retail money really is.

is there such a thing as a flipping type board? Or a board for technical chart readers? Maybe you belong there.
I've had a few conversations with guys that were either not understanding company direction or misinterpreting it. When they post incorrect info and I have the money in the game that I do here, I correct them. In the case of you two, every time you're out you're on here bad mouthing the price of oil. But you're in and out so frequently I think most here understand you're just pumping your own agenda. If you're going to stay out a while, maybe try to find a new online home.
I'm actually surprised you fellas don't seem to understand why you're on the list.
